II SHALL never forget" said Gen.
Sheridan, to Washington correspond
ent, "the ten days spent in President
Arthur's society during our trip to the
Yellowstone Park about three years
ago. You may remember, perhaps,
that President Arthur went to Florida
in the early spring of 1883 for brief sea-
son of recreation and rest. He returned
no better than he went. 1t was then /
proposed the trip to the Yellowstone. I
dwelt enthusiastically upon the benefit
he would receive from the open-air
exercise and the delightful hunting and
fishing with which that region abounded.
He accepted the invisation at once.
Our party, consisting of Gen. Arthur,
Secretary of War Lincoln, Senator
Vest, Gen. Arson Stager, Gov. John
Schuyler Crosby, Col. Michel Sheri-
dan, Col. Gregory, Capt. Clarke, and
myself, started from Chicago on the
first day of the following August. I
might say, en- PEASANT, that two of
these gentlemen-Gen. Stager and
Capt. Clarke-have since died. Gen.
Arthur's death adds another to the list
within the brief period of three years.
We left the Union Pacific Railway at
Rock Creek Station, Wyoming. The
first day we travelled ITO miles across
the country, which you must admit was
rather quick work for aparty of men
unused to such exercise. The next
day, after forty mile trip, we reached
Fort Washable, where we spent two
days. The news of our arrival spread
among the Indians on the different
reservations thereabouts, many of whom
came into camp to see the Great
Father the term by which all the
presidents are designated. 1t is not
necessary to enter into the details OF
the trip. The park was not so much
our objective point as it was that we
were afforded IN opportunity for
journeying across the intervening coun-
trv. Our movements were regulated
by sort of military precision. For
example, we arose regularly at S.
breakfasted at half-past, and at were
in the saddle. We would ride until
afternoon, and then, camping beside
some stream spend the remainder of the
day in hunting and fishing. The party
numbered several good story-tellers.
Vest was especially happy in this role,
and Gen. Stager made good second
Occasionally the President contributed
something in this line, but as rule he
nreferred heari,~ The others talk. We
travelled probi Xix hundred miles in
all. The Presi4.. .tproved an agreeable
companion; ex,Et .fionally so. He was
always the gersissaian under all circum-
stances. For r time being he was
simply plair |; .ster A. Arthur. The
President VI, sspeared to have left be-
hind in WASHINGTON.

CENsURE, says an ingenious author,
is the tax a man pays to the public for
being eminent. 1t is folly for an emf
nent man to think of escaping it, and
a weakness to be affected with it. All
the illustrious persons of antiquity, and
indeed OF every age in the world, have
passed through this tirery persecution.
There is no defense against reproach
but obscurity, it is kind of comitant
to greatness, as satires and invectives
were an essential part of Roman
triumph.

CONCERNING Victoria, Australia, o
writer in the London Lancet says: CAS-
rising colony its importance cannot
be exaggerated, and such statistics as
are at our disposal indicate that it is
also an exceptionally healthy colony.
The illustrated handbook to Victoria,
prepared for the Exhibition, states that
in 1884 the marriage rate equalled 1853
per 1000, the birth rate 3O.49,
and the death rate 14.27. This is I'M
doubtedly q remarkably low death rate,
but it cannot be compared with that of
Europe, Us the proportion of children in
Victoria is much smaller. The fact
that there is no winter, so to speak. in
Victoria, must further contribute to the
health of the population. Cattle are
able to live in the field all the year
round, though no sort of shelter is pro-
vided, and such climatic conditions
must help to render physical existence
easy. Winter is merely the more rainy
season of the year, and snow is un-
known"

WOMAN AND THE HOME.
The Atmosphere of Sweet Peace VIII
Should Prevade Every Family.

The Atmosphere of Sweet Peace Which
Should Prevade Every Family.
Nothing so helps woman through
the long weary days of work, as tn,
knowledge that what she does is appre-
ciated by those she loves and for whom
she tolls. Think of this, husbands and
fathers, and remember that kind word
is always in season. If, on some morn
ing. the coffee is shade too brown to
suit YOUR taste, do not scold about it:
and, on every other morning when it is
delicious, say so. Try this way and you
will find your coffee, and every thing
else, to your taste much Oftener; and
besides. you will give the ones you
ought to love best the sweet conscious
ness that they are doing their work
well. and giving satisfaction to the one,
of all others, thoy most desire to please
thus inspiring them with renewed
energy to strive for the merited re-
ward of kind, appreciatiye words.
And so shall an atmosphere OF
peace, and sweet home happiness come
to pervade the whole house, born and
nurtured into beautiful, fragrant bios
soming by your own kind words and
deeds. Let us all remember. too, that
the higher and happier our home life.
the more wisely and better we may
hope to do the work that lies waiting
for us beyond it. A pleasant place to
.'come home to- is the greatest ener-
gizer a man can have. Then let US
strive with an earnest and constant pur-
pose to make and keep the home cheer
full, inviting and pleasant
Every home should be brightly and
tastefully furnished, freely-if carefully
used-and every table should be regular
" spread with a reasonable variety of
GOOD, wholesome and appetizing food.
Economy is very good thing; but when
itdegenerates into unnecessary ''scrimp-
ing" it becomes meanness. The very
poor are often obliged to stint; but, what
their necessity makes virtue, is really
a crime in the comfortably situated.
What are delicious things made for, if
not to be eaten? The appetite claims a
certain amount of what some consider
luxuries to satisfy it, and this should be
supplied in a reasonable quantity at the
home table. A craving, unsatisfed
stomach is dangerous thing, whether
it is the result of over indulgence in i'm
proper. or the want of satisfying food.
